Safix Natural Non-Scratch Multi-Purpose Coconut Scrub-Pad, 4-Count. (7 x 10)

Full warning, I don't do much baking, so I can't speak for heavy baked on food. In general, these hold up well to normal cleaning and remove starchy food well from cookware. I use them daily to remove dried on food on my quartz countertops. I use them in conjunction with trader joe's cellulose sponges and microwave both at the end of the day to sanitize them. Each scrubber has lasted about 6 weeks, at which point I toss them into the compost. I had originally purchased loofahs marketed as dish scrubbers but they were awful. They weren't abrasive enough to remove anything and were not absorbant enough to act as a sponge. I also tried a sponge/scrubber combo from Target and the scrubber fell apart in just a few days. Needless to say, I was super happy to finally find these coconut scrubbers!

This is my second purchase. The first purchase got distributed to the bathrooms and so I needed more for my kitchen. I use a low profile scrub for regular washing and these for tougher stains/burns. I have always used coconut fiber to wash those dishes that the dishwasher cannot handle.

I'm so pleased to report that these scrubbies work. I use a rough yarn knitted thing for regular dish washing, and these scrubs for pots and pans with heavy gunk. I'm so glad there's a natural and non plastic alternative that actually works. Deducted one star for the high price though.

Yes, they will shed a bit, but I haven't noticed that it's anything major. A little piece here or there as you use them. They work great at scouring pans, including an old sheet pan that is looking pretty shiny these days due to this pad! And, I've only used the one so far - I ordered the pack two months ago, and this gets used pretty much every day - it's holding up really well.I continually look for products that don't have plastics, are compostable, etc...and this is now my go-to scouring pad.

I like that this product is natural and can be composted at the end of it's life. It has the perfect level of abrasion for removing stuck on food without damaging the cookware. I wish that each pad was thicker, larger, and that more of the fibers were wrapped instead of cut. Since it's a small rectangle and it's rather thin with a lot of cut fibers, it starts to disintegrate and shed those shorter fibers pretty much right away. You need to make sure that you don't let those fibers go down the drain. I don't regret the purchase because it does the job, but unless they make some changes to the product, I won't be buying it again when the current pack is used up.

I want only natural, non-plastic and non-scratch. The fibers feel coarse and stiff when dry, so I was worried at first that they weren't truly non-scratch scrubbers. But they soften up when wet and never leave a scratch. Takes off baked-on stuff easily. It's been terrific for cleaning up old debris around rivets on pans and lids that I've never gotten off before. Love these and will definitely buy again.

I love these and will never go back to regular plastic sponges. I switched to these because I'm concerned about the microplastics coming off regular sponges and going into our water systems (HUGE and scary problem). These last so long, they do start to come apart but that is to be expected, they definitely last longer than plastic sponges (I've had the same ones for a year and 3 months. I bought two packs of them) I fill the sink with soapy water and scrub dishes that way, they work great!

When I could not find a combo natural cellulose sponge and scrubber without plastic in it )they advertised their were eco friendly but then it turned out they were 50% plastic!), I decided to use two separate ones. This is now our scrubber and boy does it get the job done! I will see how well it biodegrades in our compost pile. And I found 100% cellulose sponges on Amazon that I will attempt to compost in our yard.
